Love beer, hate lager, and one of the reasons I’d never considered making my own ginger beer or other fermented drinks before is because the possibility of exploding bottles/glass is frightening to me.

But that’s where this should come in: I have a Nick Schmitt type German fermenting crock with a water lock lid - self burping, no chance of an explosion. That one has been full of shredded cabbage since the 19th December. I plan to have my first peek tomorrow as a kind of Epiphany gift - exciting!!!
I got another order in for the alternative kind of German water lock crock (K&K) and that should be arriving shortly - https://kerazo.de/Gaertopf-5-Liter-Form-2
Any ginger bug/scoby brewing I plan to do in that.

Thanks for explaining the W30 diet, sounds like we got to similar destinations but with slightly different routes.
